December 29, 2011 - Hmmm, this seems to have taken a turn for the worse since my last bottle tasted almost 4 years ago. Decent aromatics, but the palate is pruny, ruggedly tannic, and harsh. Burned chocolate flavors and noticeable alcohol. It does calm down and improve with extended aeration. I suppose this could be a going through an awkward phase, but it's more likely that I misjudged this wine's ability to age (see previous TNs).
